Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Cardiff City

Manchester United play host to Cardiff City on Sunday afternoon unable to earn a top-four spot in the Premier League standings.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had been hoping that back-to-back wins against Huddersfield Town and Cardiff would be enough to earn a spot in next season's Champions League, but United were held to a 1-1 draw at the John Smith's Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

United can now only finish in fifth position, but they must see off their Welsh opponents and hope that Arsenal do not defeat Burnley at Turf Moor.
